2. The agent server of claim 1 , wherein the video camera captures the video information displayed on a screen of the selected electronic device, and captures the audio information sent from an audio device of the selected electronic device during the communication.

3. The agent server of claim 1 , wherein the control center stores a type, a geographical position, the hardware and software configuration, and updated software of the selected electronic device.

4. The agent server of claim 1 , wherein the direct power supply interrupts the power supplied to the dummy for a short time if the selected electronic device suddenly halts during the communication, so as to restart the selected electronic device.

5. A method for remotely testing one or more electronic devices using an agent server, the agent server communicating with a control center and one or more clients via a network, the method comprising: sending test requirements of a test for a selected electronic device by a client, wherein the test requirements comprise a request to engage in video communication with a second electronic device, a number of the second electronic device, and a calling instruction; receiving the test requirements by the agent server, and supplying power to a dummy of the selected electronic device by a direct current supply of a control interface that connects the agent server and the selected electronic device, so as to start up the selected electronic device; operating a keyboard of the selected electronic device according to the test requirements by a keyboard test device of the control interface, so as to establish the video communication between the selected electronic device and the second electronic device, wherein the keyboard test device is a simplified circuit board that uses a plurality of conducting wires to connect each key port on the selected electronic device and a port on the keyboard test device, and initiates a corresponding keystroke signal by causing a short-circuit event between two connected ports of a corresponding conducting wire; capturing video information displayed on a screen of the selected electronic device, and audio information sent from an audio device of the selected electronic device during the video communication by a video camera; transmitting the video information and audio information to the client; and determining whether the selected electronic device passes the test by determining if the video and audio information satisfies a predetermined standard.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising: interrupting the power supplied to the dummy for a short time if the selected electronic device suddenly halts during the communication, so as to restart the selected electronic device.

7. The method of claim 5 , further comprising: analyzing hardware and software configuration of the selected electronic device stored in the control center, to determine a failure cause of the test if the video and audio information does not satisfy the predetermined standard.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising: updating corresponding software of the selected electronic device via a data bus connector of the control interface, in response that the failure cause of the test is software related.

9. The method of claim 5 , wherein the control center stores a type, a geographical position, the hardware and software configuration, and updated software of the selected electronic device.

10. A non-transitory storage medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions capable of being executed by a processor to perform a method for remotely testing one or more electronic devices using an agent server, the agent server communicating with a control center and one or more clients via a network, the method comprising: sending test requirements of a test for a selected electronic device by a client, wherein the test requirements comprise a request to engage in video communication with a second electronic device, a number of the second electronic device, and a calling instruction; receiving the test requirements by the agent server, and supplying power to a dummy of the selected electronic device by a direct current supply of a control interface that connects the agent server and the selected electronic device, so as to start up the selected electronic device; operating a keyboard of the selected electronic device according to the test requirements by a keyboard test device of the control interface, so as to establish the video communication between the selected electronic device and the second electronic device, wherein the keyboard test device is a simplified circuit board that uses a plurality of conducting wires to connect each key port on the selected electronic device and a port on the keyboard test device, and initiates a corresponding keystroke signal by causing a short-circuit event between two connected ports of a corresponding conducting wire; capturing video information displayed on a screen of the selected electronic device, and audio information sent from an audio device of the selected electronic device during the video communication by a video camera; transmitting the video information and audio information to the client; and determining whether the selected electronic device passes the test by determining if the video and audio information satisfies a predetermined standard.

11. The storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises: interrupting power supplied to the dummy for a short time if the selected electronic device suddenly halts during the communication, so as to restart the selected electronic device.

12. The storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises: analyzing hardware and software configuration of the selected electronic device stored in the control center, to determine a failure cause of the test if the video and audio information does not satisfy the predetermined standard.

13. The storage medium of claim 12 , wherein the method further comprises: updating corresponding software of the selected electronic device via a data bus connector of the control interface, in response that the failure cause of the test is software related.
